Officers were called to a home in the community about seven minutes later, where they found the seriously injured 22-year-old. Paramedics took him to hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The RCMP previously announced that its Homicide Investigation Unit had taken over the investigation into the death.
On Sunday, a teenage youth contacted investigators to turn themselves in and was arrested in connection with the death. Police said the youth was released without charges after additional evidence was gathered including a review of video footage, and a consultation with Crown prosecutors.
Neither youth reported physical injuries to police.
The RCMP said investigators are not seeking additional suspects, but continue to investigate the circumstances of the incident.
